How to leverage positive tipping points for climate action

Negative tipping points for the Earth’s climate system are approaching fast, adding further urgency to climate action. But well-designed climate action may be able to trigger its counterpart: benef...

So a while back me and my partner @bjornvandesand decided to try and learn gamedev together, and what better way to do that than to try and make a very small game? It's very short, and very imperfect, but we had a lot of fun and learned a lot! #gamedev #indiegamedev #godotengine

The Artist - Cor Blok's illustrations were on the front of the first Dutch LotR paperbacks from 1965. They were the first LotR edition I read, as my mom owned them, and seeing this art always fills me with nostalgia. #tolkien #tolkientrewsday

The Art Share Cover
Featuring a painting of a centaur, named Rowan, sitting on a hill with dark grass and many little flowers, looking out into hilly forested landscape, which is warmly lit by the setting sun.

Sitting and leaning against Rowan’s equine body is a young squire named Arley, who is hugging himself and looks lost in his own thoughts, his gaze aimlessly directed away from the view. He is wearing chain mail around his shoulders, over a blue cowl with the hood down, a surcoat over a pale grey thinny padded gambeson, trousers and boots.

Behind them are the bold red words ‘Art Share’

I'm rewatching Kaos and it's really such a damn shame it was cancelled. It's such a great take on the Greek gods with all their messy, petty, human emotions. Also the Fates were really great, as was Dionysus. Would've loved to have seen the end of this tale but alas :(

A while back I was really stuck with my art, so I did a bunch of DnD character requests over on Reddit. I barely do character art any more nowadays, so they were a nice refresher! Although the backgrounds did start to creep back in, trying to take over :) #art #DnD #characterart

#TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday #Tolkien Two Years - Apt For Today's Days Just a small reminder that Tolkien always ultimately wrote about hope. About how good can always overcome bad or evil with light. That even those who regard themselves as small, or seen as such, sometimes surprise all!

Fighting what's wrong... Fighting against intolerance.

Happy two years #TolkienTrewsday! Trees - Treebeard is one of my favourite characters. I really appreciate how Tolkien gave voices and personality to the trees, giving them agency. There are many times I've wished our RL trees could speak up and defend themselves. #art #watercolor #ink #Tolkien

An ink and watercolour drawing of Treebeard with lots of leaves and green hues. It's a portrait from the side.

No trees today, but just some cute little houses! I used to draw these kind of stacking houses all the time while traveling by train, trying to add on different houses that I went past. #art #watercolor #ink

Still trying to catch up on posting old art here. This is another Fangorn I drew a couple of years ago. I wasn't too happy with it back then, but it's grown on me a bit since. This was when I was in my homemade custom brushes for everything phase. #art #tolkien #luinellë

I used to be quite bad about alskdjflk.png and doesn't name layers, but working in a bigger team in a studio made me obsessively start to name everything. It's such a pain in the ass to work on someone else's stuff and having to search through all files/layers.

Bad habit artist bingo. One million WIPs, Comes up with ideas does nothing, Forgot to sleep/eat/etc, The urge to draw in the most inconvenient times, hunched over desk like a gremlin, too hard on self, free space, saves 100 tutorials uses none, where's my pen/stylus?, 100 empty sketchbooks, Forgot to sign/watermark pie, Gets distracted in the middle of drawing with another idea are all marked off

I should make a pinned post or something. Hi everyone! I'm Karin, and I love to draw trees, moss, and fantasy art. My goals for this year are to do more traditional art (mostly ink and watercolor) and more Tolkien art! #art

So when I'm too tired to work on bigger drawings but really want to draw, I tend to speedpaint Fangorn with Merry and Pippin in it. Fangorn is basically everything I love: dark, wild forest (with plenty of moss!) + Tolkien. #art #speedpaint #tolkien #luinellë

Here are some ink drawings I did based on Tolkien works. Glaurung and Nienor, a hobbit hole, and Radagast in Mirkwood. All of Tolkien's works, as well as the LotR movies, are really dear to me. They've been a big part of both my personal and artistic journey <3 #art #ink #tolkien

An ink drawing of Glaurung, a dragon, and Nienor, a human, from the Silmarillion. Glaurung is huge and encircles Nienor, who is tiny in comparison.

An ink drawing of Radagast, a wizard, walking in the woods. He has a staff with a raven sitting on it.
